A lot of the clothes I've bought/wanted lately have been dry-clean only. But some of them, like this sweater dress for example: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1...;scid=581475012. Is it really necessary to dry clean them? Each garment costs at LEAST $3-6 to clean (one of my dresses cost like $15 just because it had set in food stains), which adds up. Something like that is just like any sweater, just bigger, right?

What materials absolutely must be dry cleaned, and what can you get away with just washing at home? As long as you use cold water and a gentle cycle... Are you willing to risk it?
